The difference between green lime and yellow lemon, lemon pictures

1. The difference between the two

1. Different color: Lime is green in color, has a relatively smooth surface, and will not change color. When yellow lemons first bear fruit, they are green in color and have some texture. As they mature, they will gradually turn into golden yellow.

2. Different taste: Lime has a little fragrance, tastes more sour, and has a bitter taste. The yellow lemon has a strong fragrance that you can smell when you pick it up. It also tastes sour, but a little lighter in comparison.

3. Different uses: Lime has more water, so it is very suitable for juicing, and it can also be used to make tea. Yellow lemon is mainly used in cooking. Dripping the juice on seafood can remove the fishy smell and add a certain aroma.

2. How to grow lemons

1. Soil: Lemon grows best in places with deep soil and gentle slopes with good drainage. If it is potted, the soil must be loose and rich in humus.

2. Light: Lemon is relatively light-loving, so during the growth process it should be placed in a sunny place so that it can receive sufficient light. At the same time, pay attention to the temperature. If it is too hot, you need shade to cool down.

3. Watering: Lemon cannot grow without water. If the environment is relatively dry, be sure to water it in time and keep the soil moist, especially during its growth period. Timely watering will help its development.

4. Fertilization: Lemon generally needs to be fertilized before flowering and after fruiting. Generally, it is sufficient to apply fertilizer once a month. You can also spray nutrient solution once every half a month. The amount is determined according to the size of the plant.
